How to book the Tuscan villa where Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma got married

(And how much it will cost you)

The 800-year-old Tuscan villa may or may not impress your wallet but it certainly would put a smile on your girl’s face. Borgo Finocchieto, known for its old architecture spewing medieval Italy feels, the rich reservoir of classy wines and the much-needed privacy is what most celebrities would kill for. Especially if they want to keep their celebrations a hush-hush affair or ‘just family’. For Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, these very needs were fulfilled by the second most expensive holiday rental villa (as per Forbes), Borgo Finochietto. Away from the city and paparazzi Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli tied the knot in this stunning villa.

So where exactly is Borgo Finocchieto located?

The Tuscan villa where Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli got married lies 30 minutes South of Siena and close to Montalcino in the Brunello wine growing district. Even though Florence Peretola is the nearest airport, Rome, Pisa and Milan are the three major airports from which the villa can be accessed too. Borgo Finocchieto offers chauffeur-driven car pick-ups for its guests. But if you want to arrive rather than check into the villa, you can simply book a chopper.

What does it offer?

Private space, luxurious treatment, impeccable wine and more. It is perfect for a couple who wish to keep their big day a grand yet private affair. Since the Borgo requires you to have at least 44 guests it is perfect for that destination wedding your girl has been planning. There are 22 bedrooms and suites stretched across five villas.

Finally, how much will Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s wedding venue cost you?

Prices for the entire Borgo Finocchieto go as high as Rs 13.5 lakh per night during the holiday season (i.e. now). But, according to reports, you will need to book the villa for at least three nights. So it’s safe to say that Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s wedding venue will blow a hole of at least Rs 40.5 lakh.

How to book Borgo Finocchieto?

Even though Borgo Finocchieto is listed on TripAdvisor, you cannot book the villa using the popular booking site. Since it is a luxury villa, you will need to email them or do it the old fashioned way – get your butler to make the call. Alternatively, log on to luxuryretreats.com, swipe your card and make the booking. Sure it’ll cost you an arm and leg but think of the loyalty points you’ll get on your credit card.
